A collection of electrical schematics, mechanical drawings, and other drawings for Block II AGC models 2003100 and 2003200 and their associated DSKY models. This imagery comes from 8.5"×11" photocopies of what were originally much larger drawings in some cases. The photocopies were then stored in a binder for 50 years before finally being digitized. The quality has therefore been compromised not only by the size reduction of the originals, but also by the long storage time. In...

Precedes all flown missions, but is distinguished by the fact that it is the last AGC software that retains a full suite of self-test software, and is thus indispensable for validating software and hardware simulations of the guidance computer.

Digital simulation of Apollo 11 lunar landing made by Apollo Guidance Computer developer in 1971 (after the 1969 landing itself) as part of the process of testing improved algorithms. (The indication on the cover that it is a listing of the DIANA program is incorrect, and is simply due to the binder having been repurposed at some point.)

Apollo Guidance Computer software, not used for any flown mission, though theoretically targeted for the Lunar Module. As of February 2017, it is the oldest-known still-surviving AGC code. At the time it was written in 1965, its purpose was to port AGC code written for the Command Module's early "Block I" AGC to the later-model "Block II" AGC used for the flown Lunar Module missions.

Comprehensive, user-oriented description of the Apollo guidance system, and specifically the guidance computer (AGC). While it purports to be non-mission-specific, it relates to Colossus 3 and to Luminary 1E, and should therefore be accurate for Apollo 15, 16, and 17, which used the software in question.

These are Grumman engineering drawings of the Apollo Lunar Module from part 1/2 of aperture-card box 518 stored at the National Archives Southwest branch in Fort Worth, Texas. Part 1 contains a complete set of B&W scans, whereas part 2 contains grayscale rescans of cards whose B&W scans are illegible. A full index of the scans in this box, by drawing number and title, should be at the Virtual AGC Project website .

The requirements specification drawing for the Guidance & Navigation Computer Buffer Unit built by Motorola. The Computer Buffer Unit was the part of the DTCS (Digital Test Command System) that serialized commands for uplink to the AGC (Apollo Guidance Computer) during testing. The DTCS was the uplink portion of the ACE-S/C (Acceptance Checkout Equipment - Spacecraft), which was used for testing the Command Module and Lunar Module both at the factory and on the launchpad just before...

"FCC" stands for Flight Control Computer, from the Instrumentation Unit of Saturn V and Saturn IB rockets used in the Apollo missions of the late 1960's and early 1970's. In modern terms, the word "computer" is a misnomer: The FCC was not a digital computer, nor does it run software. You can think of it as an analog computer whose primary function was to reduce attitude errors in the rocket: i.e., to help prevent it from flopping over in flight. Here's a rough index to...

This is part of a collection of MIT/IL Apollo Guidance Computer mechanical and electrical drawings, scanned from "aperture cards" (microfilm) held by the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration. This batch consists almost entirely of Block I AGC/DSKY mechanical and electrical drawings. See also the other batches of aperture cards, and the index of the individual drawings in these uploads at the Virtual AGC Project website.
